The new product line Fire-Block” is designed to guarantee the protection of components in case of fire. Our material layering are tested and certified according to UL 1709.
Type Approval Certificate for Enclosure systems tested according to Norm UL 1709
Pictures from one of our test campaigns: “Fire Block” jacket system tested under Hydrocarbon Pool Fire scenario UL1709, over several geometries and massivities, faithfully representing the equipments to be protected.
During the test
PassiveFireProtection-UL1709
Type Approval Certificate for Enclosure systems tested according to Norm UL 1709
Successful results from test campaigns: test units are selected to cover a wide range of equipments, by the mean of a proper combination of the parameters “geometry–massivity”
Layering of the jackets, nature of material, thickness, and design in general for the desired firerate, are conceived under the consideration of the critical temperatures of the equipments to protect (e.g.actuators), being +70 to +110°C
